Krishnanagar MP Mahua Moitra says she responds to an incident involving eggs being pelted at her, comparing her experience to how “freedom fighters faced bullets.” The Times of India and The Hindu both report that Moitra frames the episode as one in which she is targeted by political opponents.
Both outlets describe Moitra linking her remarks to a Supreme Court judge’s earlier oral observation about freedom fighters and bullets. They report that Moitra alleges BJP workers were behind the egg-throwing. The coverage focuses on her statement and the political context around the allegation, rather than providing additional independent details about the incident.
While both sources align on the core claims—Moitra’s comparison and her allegation against BJP workers—the exact phrasing and emphasis differ. Times of India highlights the “freedom fighter” line in its headline, while The Hindu likewise foregrounds her quote and identifies the Supreme Court reference in explaining what she is drawing on.
